Are you searching for the best 5 cup coffee maker for your office or home?

So let's get right into finding the best 5 cup coffee maker for you.

#1 Black & Decker 5 Cup Coffee Maker (DCM600)

This is a particularly popular model that's available in both black (as seen) and white that takes on a five cup capacity that's fitted into a sleek compact design making it ideal as a office coffee maker. Moreover, as you can see the carafe is made from a tough durable glass that's fitted with water marks so you know exactly how much brew you actually have left in there to share around.

It is known to produce an excellent brew giving that its fitted with an optimal brewing temp technology to ensure it hits your coffee sweet spot every time. In all, it serves as the perfect machine to help you with that group 'pick me up' whether it be for your entire family or work colleagues.

#2 Mr. Coffee 5 Cup Programmable Coffee Maker (JWX3)

This is another very well loved coffee machine manufactured by the very reputable company Mr. Coffee. Like the Black and Decker DCM600 above, it offers itself as a quality appliance at a pretty much budget price. So as you should expect, it offers all the features you would expect such as a water viewing window (with markings) so you know how much water is in the reservoir, moreover it comes with cord storage to keep everything compact, safe and neat.

However, the Mr. Coffee JWX3 has a few extra tricks and features than the typical standard 5 cup coffee maker it has a brew n pause aspect (which comes in very handy) whereby you can essentially pour a cup of coffee whilst the machine simultaneously is still in the process of brewing. You can also remove its filter basket to allow for quick,l claning and maintenance. In all, it is clear this is definitely a great coffee maker for the office and like.

#3 Zojirushi Zutto 5 Cup Drip Coffee Maker (EC-DAC50)

This Zutto coffee maker is easily the best of the bunch and likely the best 5 cup coffee maker in the market, however this is of course reflected in its price (as you would expect) but ultimately serves as a top quality commercial coffee machine. It works on a 650 watt drip mechanism that is of course capable of producing up to five cuppas with every brewing session.

Furthermore, to ensure every cup it produces is top notch it has a sophisticated filtration system to make sure the coffee is entirely pure. This consists of a filter cone that is integrated within the decanter to be more efficient and take up less space. It also comes with a few clever features such as the auto 'keep warm function' in case you wanted to come back to the coffee a bit later on and also has a measuring spoon. The Zutto really is a quality machine that is both extremely popular and well regarded by coffee lovers around the world.

#4 Hamilton Beach 5 Cup Coffeemaker (48137)

What makes the Hamilton Beach 48137 coffee machine unique is that it comes with a stainless steel carafe (that's dishwasher safe) instead of a glass one, so if dropped it won't just smash. So you could argue that it is potentially more durable than the other models (although for many of the others replacements could be bought) but this is certainly a factor to consider, especially if it is going to get a lot of usage (e.g. within an office type of scenario).

However, that's not the only factor it has going for it, the 48137 actually comes with a range of decent features for such a small five cup coffee maker such as the cone shaped basket (with brew for easy access), the stop and serve feature (like in the Mr. Coffee range) as well as a non stick plate involved. Also, note it comes in either a silver (as shown above) or black finish, both look pretty sleek in fairness.

#5 Mr. Coffee CoffeeMaker with Stainless Steel Carafe

Another Mr. Coffee five cup coffee machine. Another one of the best five cup coffee makers on the market. Although it is actually very similar to the model above, with the brew n pause feature and has the same capacity etc. but it does have a notable difference. The fact that it is programmable, means you basically have 'more of a say' in how the coffee is produced along with also being a fair bit quieter when brewing and you also get an LCD timer.
